Esee framelock percentage question

[Jdturner697]

I got a knife in the mail a couple of days ago and the lockup on the framelock is about 80%.I was wondering is that a problem that it's that far over or is it really no big deal?because I was debating on if I should return it or not.

Nope. Different manufacturers have different lock geometry. As long as it isn't 95-100% and without lock rock, its perfectly fine.

You want framelocks to be in a the 50%-80% range. Any less and you risk lock slippage and any more and you don't have enough room for wear.
